aware

Even in the little things
That never seem too big to me
And the things that I thought
Didn’t matter much at all
As simple as my daily bread
To the strength I need to get out of bed
When I fly, when
I’m about to Fall
It’s you in me
That I fail to see
Make me aware, make me see
Everything I am is not all about me
Take my world, turn it around
So that the obvious can finally be found
Make me aware, make me aware
When my life is hanging from a thread
And I think about the things you said
In this moment seems so far away
Help me see the guarantees
That first brought me to believe
So I can make it through another day
Oh, it’s you in me
That helps me to breathe

Make me aware, make me see

Everything I am is not all about me
Take my world, turn it around
So that the obvious can finally be found
Make me aware
I have been missing so much
Not recognizing your touch
All acknowledging you’re the reason I’m even here
I have been missing so much
Not recognizing your touch
Make me aware, make me aware
Help me see,
Everything I am is not all about me
Take my world, turn it around
So that the obvious can finally be found
Make me aware, make me aware

For none of us lives to himself alone and none of us dies to himself alone. Romans 14:7

this is such a simple idea. why do i make it so difficult? i try to live for me, me, me...when all along, i am here for everyone but. i have been put on this earth to worship my great God and share His love to those around me. end of story. so why do i put so many things ahead of my Savior and His will for my life? do i think i am smarter than the God of the Universe? no. do i think i can do better than what he has planned? no. do i think my plan is The Plan? no. i know all of these things are not what God calls me to do, yet i do them anyway. thus, i must begin the journey of awareness. i must listen to the Spirit of the Lord guide His house (me). i must stop running the wrong way and turn to Him-so He can lead me.

i thank you Lord for my many chances, i thank you Lord for Your strength, i thank you Lord for enlightenment and your light in my once stained soul. i pray that being "aware" is another first step in the right direction. i pray that where i am led, others will see Your light within me. i pray that Your light may shine brighter than it ever has. i pray that my precious family will shine shine shine.

i pray.

i pray.

i pray.
